Michigan Health Policy Forum
SAVE THE DATE
The next Michigan Health Policy Forum will be held on Monday, May 1, 2017. The topic will be New Directions in Health Policy: the First 100 days of the Trump Administration.
We are pleased to announce that our keynote speaker will be Dr. Gail Wilensky, Senior Fellow at Project HOPE and former senior health and welfare adviser to President George H.W. Bush.
As the Trump Administration begins to coalesce, there are rumors, discussions and campaign promises about changes that will be made in our healthcare delivery/financing systems. The President elect has promised to repeal and potentially replace the Affordable Care Act and members of Congress have promised to "privatize" Medicare and convert Medicaid to a block grant program. The Michigan Health Policy Forum will review the first 100 days of the Trump Administration, distinguish the rumors from the facts, and explore the impact that these actions will have on Michigan.
Please save the date of May 1, 2017. We will send you a formal invitation/registration once the Michigan reactor panel has been confirmed.
